Product description
Carry your branding beyond the counter with personalised paper bags, a practical way to package purchases, gifts and giveaways while putting your design firmly on display. Available in three sizes, they give you plenty of choice for everything from smaller items to larger retail purchases.
Each white paper bag features matching white handles and is digitally printed in full colour on one side. With a generous print area across every size, your logo, artwork or message gets plenty of room to stand out, while the gusseted construction gives you added space for the items inside.
Whether you’re creating branded packaging for a shop, putting together event giveaways or adding the finishing touch to customer orders, these custom printed paper bags turn practical packaging into another place for your brand to be seen.
Retail packaging, branded gift bags, event giveaways, market stalls, promotional merchandise and more.
Top tip
Make artwork easy to recognise at a glance. Logos, illustrations and simple branded graphics can turn the bag into part of the overall packaging experience.
Design guidelines
To make artwork setup simple, download the relevant template from the Production templates section above. Follow the instructions provided and remember to remove the 'Guide' layer before exporting your artwork as a PDF.
For the best printing results, ensure your artwork and images are in CMYK. If you use RGB, Pantone or spot colours, these will be converted to CMYK during production, which may affect how your colours appear in print.
To avoid font issues, make sure all fonts are embedded or converted to outlines before exporting your PDF. For readability, we recommend using a minimum font size of 10pt.
For the best print quality, aim for images between 300dpi and 450dpi at their final print size. Lower resolutions may appear blurry or pixelated, while higher resolutions can increase file sizes. Check product template for any specific requirements.
To avoid alignment issues during cutting, include crop marks with a 10mm offset and document bleed when exporting your artwork as a PDF. Refer to the relevant product template for the required bleed specifications, as these vary by product.
All artwork must be supplied as a print ready PDF. We recommend exporting in Adobe PDF (Print) format, ideally using the PDF/X 1a:2001 standard.

Canva uses RGB colour mode by default, which is designed for screens rather than print. For the best printing results, make sure you select CMYK when exporting your artwork. Converting from RGB to CMYK can cause slight colour shifts, so always check your exported PDF carefully before uploading to avoid unexpected results.

Use fonts of at least 10pt to maintain legibility and keep important text within the safe zone. Use images at 300dpi or higher at their final size to avoid blurry or pixelated results.

Extend backgrounds, colours and images into the bleed area to avoid unwanted white edges after trimming. Keep important text, logos and design elements within the safe zone, and follow the bleed requirements for your chosen product.

When exporting your finished design from Canva, select PDF Print and enable 'Crop Marks and Bleed'. This ensures your artwork includes the necessary bleed for printing. Remember to remove any template guides before downloading your file.

Custom printed paper bags are ideal for retail purchases, branded gifting, promotional giveaways, markets, events and customer orders. With three sizes available, you can choose the option that best suits what you’re packaging.
Our personalised paper bags come in three sizes, giving you options for a range of products, gifts and purchases. Choose from Small at 300 × 220 × 110mm, Medium at 360 × 260 × 110mm or Large at 400 × 320 × 110mm.
Small bags work well for individual gifts and smaller items, Medium gives you extra room for larger products or several smaller items, while Large is suited to more substantial purchases, gifts or collections of products.
Your artwork is digitally printed in full colour on one side of the bag, giving you plenty of scope for logos, illustrations, graphics and detailed designs.
The Small bag has a 200 × 200mm print area, Medium has a 240 × 280mm print area and Large has a 285 × 287mm print area.
